A nice, quiet spot
The apartment is in a great location and very quiet. The furniture was comfortable and the terrace was quite nice. I rarely needed to use the A/C, which was also nice. All in all, my stay there was very pleasant.

Barcelona jewel
This tiny apartment is ideal for a couple who want to explore Barcelona. A short walk to La Sagrada Familia, it’s in a well-supplied area: bakeries, bars and little supermarkets are in every block. We loved our stay and the property managers were responsive and welcoming

Nice place. Having the terrace was great! The location was really good for exploring the city, though if you love the beach I would recommend nearer to Barceloneta, it is still walkable and the walk is nice. Plenty of bars/restaurants near by as well as shops. The stairs will keep you fit! Overall we really enjoyed our stay!

Quaint with good location.
The property was in a good location and Tanni was great to work with! She was quick with responses to our questions and met us upon arrival. As others mentioned, the 90+ steps were a tad challenging but there were landings for quick rests. The patio was wonderful and offered added space to relax. Although the string lighting didn’t work and a chair needed repair, I’m sure Arian and Tanni will be quick to fix and freshen up the area as they were truly interested in any insight on how to make our experience better.

Great location near Sagrada Familia
Cute apartment with a wonderful patio for mornings and evenings. Fifth floor, difficult with large bags because there is no elevator. Good air conditioning. Close to tapas and tourist shops. Back side view of Sagrada Familia. We had a very nice stay and walked everywhere.

Great stay!
My friend and I stayed at this place for about 4 days and it was wonderful! The hosts were great with communication, and even gave us recommendations for the city. Check in and out was easy and quick! The apartment is small, but the patio really makes up for it, as we spent most of our time out there when we weren’t wandering around the city. It’s about a 30 minute walk to Las Ramblas where most of the attractions are, but if you’re okay with exploring and walking it is totally fine! There are supermercats, cafes, and restaurants everywhere/close by. The only key note is the many flights of stairs you will have to walk up and down to get to this top floor penthouse so make sure your legs are ready!! Thank you so much for this wonderful stay we enjoyed it very much. :)

Barcelona stay
Overall we had a wonderful experience staying here feeling like we were locals in Barcelona. It was close to a few train stations, La Sagrada Familia and some nice restaurants. Our host was kind enough to offer suggestions for restaurants and things to do while here. Important to note, you will have to ascend 95 (yes 95) stairs from street level to the apartment, so if you must be in good shape to stay here and haul up your own luggage. The balcony is technically open to all residents but we never saw anyone up there, it was a nice space to be in the sun with fresh air. Overall, if you a physically capable, I would recommend this stay if you’re interested in what it would be like to stay as a local (not tourist) in Barcelona.

Nice little flat with amazing roof terrace
We liked it a lot to stay in this flat. The bed was very cozy and the kitchen had everything you need to cook: stove microwave toaster, kettle...and even spices. A real highlight is the roof terrace. It could also be used by the other people in the house but we were always there alone. We can definitely recommend the flat!

Nice break
Was here for a long weekend with my partner. Location is great, property is nice, lovely terrace area. Owner is really nice and friendly- can’t do enough for you. Not suitable for those with less mobility as there’s a lot of stairs. Would stay here again. I would advice getting precise location before finding on gmaps as we walked 30 mins in wrong direction only to find we’d walked past it long ago. (The street numbers don’t flow)

Conveniently located
The apartment is well located to get anywhere with the metro. There are plenty of restaurants around and a convenient market on the street. The apartment is on the 5th floor and there is no elevator, so if you are not in shape, I would not recommend. It is quite a climb with luggage or after a long day of walking through the city. Arian was very welcoming and we enjoyed our stay.

Arian was great the property was a bit run down
There were many things that did not work. Such as the shades for privacy. The front door is glass and it leads to a shared space for the building. The espresso machine we were told was recently broken as was the patio door and shower doors. The aprtment had a lot of potential and jas been mistreated for some time i would say. Arian was great and i would say nothing other then that. The apartment needs some attention to restore it to the ny times article standard.

Super host
Arian is a great host. He met us at the property and welcomed us. He left us a bottle of wine.and fruit as well as organized our trip to the airport. The apartment is well located with many sites and restaurants within walking distance. I would recommend this place to anyone who can walk up 4 flights of stairs. The lovely terrace when you get there makes it worthwhile.

Not like the photos - needs updating
Adrian is a nice man and is proud of his rental that was featured in a magazine over a decade ago. Unfortunately, the apartment has not been maintained and is need of a very extensive update. Broken drawer in the kitchen, broken shower door replaced by a shower curtain with mold, a light hanging from the ceiing but most importantly, a door to the balcony was not secured. We had to leave after the first night as the security was a concern.

Fantastic location - perfect little space
We stayed in this studio/one bedroom for several days in late-July 2023. This was the perfect location for my wife and I to explore the sites and sounds of the City. We did not need to take a cab anywhere other than to Parc Guell. It is close enough to walk to Sagrada Familia, the cathedral, the Arch, Gothic Quarter, and La Rambla. It is also very close to the north bus terminal which is where many of the excursions to Montserrat depart from. For dinner and brunch, we typically just went to one of the many restaurants on the block. I would especially suggest Portoles for dinner and Brunch el Petit for brunch. Arian was very easy to communicate with. Our flights were a mess, and he was very accommodating when we arrived early. The housekeeper was still cleaning (the prior guests left a bit of a mess), and she was very helpful in storing our bags and working as fast as she could. As mentioned in other reviews, the steps are no joke. But, for the location and rooftop patio, it was worth it.

Good for the price but not great
A few days before we arrived I messaged the host to ask if it was possible to drop our bags off since our flight arrived early. He said yes. Upon arrival, he informed us that he had given the current guests a late checkout and said he could drop our bags in the room with the current guests, which made me very uncomfortable, so we sat in a cafe for 4+ hours with our bags waiting for check in since we had not prepared any backup bag holding and were too exhausted to figure it out. Check in as list as 2pm but the room was not ready until 3pm. Upon getting into the room, it was painfully obvious that the room needed basic wear and tear fixes that the owner had clearly tried to do on the cheap. For example, the small balcony door does not close all the way, so the “noise blocking” does not work, the shower doors apparently don’t work, so there is a very cheap “rod” that fell every time we tried to shower. There is also barely enough hot water for 1 shower. Water got cold after 10 mins so 2 people can’t shower back to back. The window shades do not fit or roll up correctly, which was so frustrating especially since the main entry door technically leads out to a public area, so we wanted to keep that shade down, but then you cannot open the door if the shade is down. We were also given 1 bath towel despite there being 2 of us. No wine either. It was mostly clean, the bed was good, and the location was nice. It was also much cheaper than other places, so you get what you pay for.

Horrible Experience
A stranger on an electric skate cart delivered the keys 2 hrs after our arrival at 930pm on the street. He did not show me inside or say anything about the apartment. Property on 5th floor but lights did not work properly so difficult and unsafe to climb floors. Wife almost fell on decent after looking at apt. The place was dirty, rotten banana on couch. Nasty Cardboard box on floor. Leftover food/condiments all over kitchen area. Couch is old and dirty. Pictures represent new refurbished apt and this place is a disgrace, dark and grungy, plastic for front door blind that opened to common roof area. Uncomfortable with person who gave key. We left and checked in at hotel. We were on the street out front until1130pm trying to call and wave taxi. Very frightening for wife, this part of town not safe that late at night. Met with owner and all he had was excuses for check in process, wanted us to wait at bar until someone?, got there with key, unacceptable!! Said the apartment was clean but workers just left from doing repairs. the next morning after meeting with owner! Very inconvenient and lots of anxiety!! The owner disrespectful and could care less how it affected us, did not cooperate in any manner. Difficult to find hotel room and rates were double what we had planned on paying. Overall very very poor. Thanks!!!

Amazing location and roof terrace
The location is perfect. Walking distance to Sagrada Familia ( and other Gaudi buildings), many attractions and numerous coffee shops and restaurants. The Attic is good for 2 people and has everything you need. It was surprisingly quiet. The roof terrace is s definite plus. Relaxing here and having dinner in the evening is lovely. We had it to ourselves each evening. Arian gave us a very friendly welcome which included wine , some supplies and lots of information. He also helped carry our luggage up the many stairs as there is no elevator. If the flat had items repaired such as some of the lights and the shower door it would be a solid 5, however it still was a wonderful visit. Thank you Arian for making our first time in Barcelona memorable.
